Chapter 1299 The Old Priest
The old priest did not dare to refuse Ronald’s inquiry.
He immediately began to describe the situation of his tribe, and the content perfectly matched the statement of Representative Dalman.
Just observations from some unique perspectives.
This was something that bothered the old priest, but Harmono didn't understand.
For example, what the name of this tribe means - this is not a tribe ruled by priests, but belongs to the great commander Ivan.
It's just because we can't contact the original area now.
As a person with a special status, this old priest has the task of leading the tribe, but there are many things that he cannot override.
They have profound traditional customs.
For example, when it comes to dealing with Harmono, the tribe members would not agree to the old priest's full agency, and the old priest himself would not actually allow himself to interfere.
In their original ethnic structure, this was a matter that only the commander was qualified to decide.
In fact, they are a migrating tribe.
He also came here as an early explorer under the instruction of the great commander Ivan.
"..."
Ronald listened carefully to the old priest's explanation.
Regarding the disputes in the city, the old priest was actually very helpless.
In any organization composed of humans, once the number of people increases, several forces will inevitably split internally due to their different opinions.
Under the rule of General Ivan, the main factions were the militants and the moderates. Those who had disputes or even fights in the city were also part of the warlike tribe.
But the old priest's position was moderate.
Normally, he might be able to say a few words, but in today's emotionally intensified environment, as soon as he opens his mouth-not to mention easing the situation, it will be easy for the militants to directly fight with them internally!
"..."
"Can't you contact the commander now?"
This matter was not easy to solve. Ronald thought about it and could only ask about this point first.
According to the old priest, if we can contact the commander now.
Then the problem of this migrant tribe can be solved almost immediately.
The old priest shook his head with a grimace and said,
"Sir, this is exactly what is bothering me now." "
The distance between here and our hometown is too far. Even if I try my best, I can't get in touch with the commander."
" ..."
It was an expected answer.
Ronald asked this question with the intention of giving it a try.
However, just when Ronald was about to respond, the old priest took the initiative and said:
"Sir, in fact, I originally interpreted the previous prophecy as that the tribe would encounter a huge crisis here, and although the commander himself is not here, his The eyes are still observing us, waiting for some kind of change or opportunity to come."
At this point, the old priest paused for a moment.
He looked at the three Ronalds carefully, and then continued in a helpless tone:
"But after you three arrived, I knew that my previous interpretation of the prophecy must have been wrong." "
The problems facing the tribe are actually The problem above is with the aboriginal people here; and that sacred bird that is high above, overlooking everything, is you who possess supreme power!" After saying this
, the old priest lowered his head almost at the same time.
He knew that he was powerless to resist the three Ronalds, or that no one in the tribe combined could resist the will of these three people.
The old priest, who had a gentle personality, could only use this posture to pray for mercy from the man in front of him.
"..."
Ronald also felt pitiful for the old priest's plight.
But Harmono is also an innocent city, not to mention that Ronald accepted the commission.
Under this premise, Ronald chose to openly announce:
"Mr. Priest, I won't hide it from you. The three of us actually accepted Harmono's commission, hoping to solve your current problems." "
... "
Despair was almost written on the old priest's face.
Ronald's words were almost a verdict for him and the tribe, and meant the final direction of fate.
It was impossible for the old priest to remain silent. He squeezed out almost all the strength in his withered body and made a final request to Ronald: "
Sir, our tribe's current problems are very serious."
"I don't want to disobey you. Will - But with the shortage of supplies, the unfamiliar environment, and the floating people's hearts, if we continue to travel far under such circumstances, I'm afraid there won't be many people left in the entire tribe." - You are leading us to a dead end
. force.
The old priest did not throw the blame on Ronald. He simply stated the consequences of doing so.
And Ronald...his blood pressure has gone up now.
Although I knew this was probably a troublesome thing before I took over, it was only after I actually came to take a look that I realized what the specific situation was.
If only Ronald could have come earlier.
Then suppress the militants directly, and all troubles can disappear before they get out of control.
But now... this matter cannot be solved like this.
The conflict between the Migrant tribe and Harmono has already resulted in armed conflict. Even if the militants are dealt with now, the relatives and friends of those in the Migrant tribe will go to extremes in the intensified situation.
"Pfft-"
Suddenly, laughter came from the side.
When Ronald was confused and dizzy, Catalina also broke away from her thoughts.
And when she saw Ronald's current appearance, she understood everything in an instant.
Immediately, Catalina joked:
"Ronald, don't you think you are asking for trouble?"
"If you follow my method, you will either directly force Harmono to help us, or directly clear this place. Both methods are simple and direct, requiring no thinking. Isn't this 10,000 times more comfortable than the way you are struggling now?"
Ronald immediately rolled his eyes at Catalina.
But at the same time, the old priest had opened his cloudy eyes - he was very frightened.
These words came from the mouth of the Tower Master of the Astronomy Department, and they sounded like the truth.
But Ronald knew that this was just a joke Catalina played on herself. If this guy really wants to take action, he won't joke with himself here at all, but will directly take action!
Next, under the horrified gaze of the old priest, Ronald said cautiously:
"Anyway, the three of us will go back to Harmono first and tell them the situation."
"It involves the lives of many people. This is not a matter of making a decision based on our will alone!"
Catalina and Lamer naturally had no objection to Ronald's decision.
The three of them got up from the tent, each chanted a spell to activate the flying spell, and prepared to return to Hamo City immediately.
However, at this moment, something unexpected happened.
The old priest at the back actually stood up straight and followed Ronald directly:
"Mr. Ronald, please let me go with you."
"After all, there is no accident - this should be the last of our tribe. Here's your chance."
